So, It's Been Over Six Months...

Post by He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named »

What do you think of HIPT after letting it sink in a little bit?

Do you think OLP's back? Do you think they never left? Do you think they aren't quite back yet but optimistic for the next album/tour?

Me personally, I like it quite a bit more than Gravity but it still feels a little distant from the rest of the catalogue.

Sorry if this type of topic is common or boring, I haven't been here for a while.

I still love the cd. It's different, but I still love it.

I love this CD. Is it the best one? I couldn't tell you because all Our Lady Peace CDs are awsome (although it's SO hard for me to get into Naveed). But I really love Healthy in Paranoid Times. Well worth the wait... I hate waiting though.

I should give it another listen some time, now that it's been out for a while. Judging by the last time I listened to the whole album (which was a while ago) it was (obviously) better than Gravity, but not my cup of tea.

I don't think I've listened to it since before Christmas.
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

My copy has a nice layer of dust on it.


I like it though, but will never listen to it like I do with the Big Four.

I still adore it. And I can't believe it's now been out for over 6 months. 8O

:wtf: for real?


my thoughts:

i havent listened to HIPT since when it came out... unfortunately, i can only stand half the tracks. (apology, a/l/s, where are you, & picture are good, al genina and wtfbu are okay).

i believe olp will make a great comeback, in the future, but this was not it.

With the exception of Don't Stop, I think this is a great album...

Yeah.

It's different than their other albums, but really they're all different than each other...

Definitely a big step back up from Gravity in my opinion though.
